Dream shifted hes feet from one another, biting the tip of hes finger, trying to ease the thoughts that invaded hes mind. Hes been thinking a lot about this, hes not even sure on how he arrived at Fluffytale without any memories of going there.
Was it hes exhaustion that led him on forgetting on such a crucial information like this? How did he even interacted with Ccino? He honestly couldn't recall anything, neither what he did after he woke up.
He felt scared, and so lost. The mere fact that he had interacted with this Sans au, had made him drown deeper into the pits of the hole he dug.
"Would you like some tea?" Someone spoke meekly, breaking Dream out of hes stupor.
How long had he been staring at who knows where? Dream frowned, facing Ccinos, hes face flushed in a shade of yellow, embarrassed that he had been caught spacing out.
"Yes, please. If you don't mind?" He chuckled at hes own statement awkwardly, he felt like a kid that's been caught doing something terrible by their parent.
"Is that all?" Ccino raises hes bonebrow, hes tone didn't change from so much tenderness, a small genuine smile plastered on hes cheekbones,"Im not really sure on what you like, but I hope you know that im not forcing you to drink tea and all."
Dream nodded hes head, giving Ccino a sheepish smile. He rubbed hes phalanges against each other, titling hes head a bit to the side.
He could honestly feel that Ccino seemed to be anxious about something. But he could feel a little bit of positive emotions coming from this Sans, even if it seemed to overpowered by the negativity he was releasing.
"I meant that there are still a lot of options out there, and I just blindly guess on what you would like." Ccino explained, hes smile have not yet faltered but the anxiety that had been settling in the pits of hes stomach, was starting to resurface even more.
Dream tapped hes finger on the table, holding back the wince that wanted to leave hes mouth. The negativity that strucked him, had made him want to head back home.
He was starting to regret the subconscious decision he had made, he wasn't even aware of what he was doing, till he was suddenly here! How did he even opened up a portal through Ccino's universe without him knowing? He guessed that he'll never find out.
"Im not really sure." Dream confessed meekly, scratching the back of hes skull with a small smile.
Grimacing at what he was doing, he averted hes gaze from Ccino. Deciding that the floor was rather more interesting than Ccino's patient gaze. Dream heaved out a faint sigh, he was starting to feel pressure. He was not good at deciding for himself, when it was something on the spot. Tapping hes teeth, with hes fingers, he slowly blinked hes eyes.
"This is my first time, going to a place like this." He continued, hes facing heating up more in embarrassment,"My friend was the one who suggested me this place, saying that I could use a break-" Dream paused on hes midsentence, realizing the slip up he had done, mentally scolding himself for the slip up,"I mean, he told me that this is a very cozy place, that would be perfect for relaxing and all of that stuff!" Dream squealed in embarrassment, clenching hes fist, as he shivered in fear.
Yet he was only met wit Ccino's laughter, as the latter took a seat beside him. Placing down hes small notebook on the table, Ccino smiled at Dream.
"Its fine Dream, I get what you mean." Ccino spoke softly, putting both hes arms on the table,"Almost every Sans visits my au for that particular reason, proclaiming that they wanted to take a break from their world and such." The latter continued on, which had perked up Dream's interest.
